Clocks (Live in Sydney) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
(Oh!)
Lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against
You've put me down upon my knees
Oh, and I beg, I beg and plead, singin'
Come out of things unsaid
And shoot an apple off my head
With a trouble that can't be named
A tiger's waitin' to be tamed, singin'

[Chorus]
You are
You are

[Verse 2]
Confusion never stops
Closin' walls and tickin' clocks, I'm gonna
Come back and take it home
I could not stop that you now know, so I
Come out upon my seas
Cursed missed opportunities, am I
A part of the cure
Or am I part of the disease? Singin'

[Chorus]
You are
You are
You are
You are
You are
You are
[Bridge]
And nothin' else compares
And nothin' else compares
Oh, and nothin' else compares

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
You are
Home, home
Where I wanted to go
Home, home
Where I wanted to go
Home, home
Where I wanted to go
Home, home
Where I wanted to go
Now I'm home, home
Where I wanted to go
Yes, I went home, home
Where I wanted to go
Now I'm at home
Where I wanted to go
Yes, I went home, home
Where I wanted to go
And I went home

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
